Feb 25 14:29:13 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting Getty on tty1... Feb 25 14:29:13 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Started Getty on tty6. Feb 25 14:29:13 localhost.localdomain systemd[1]: Starting Getty on tty6... It looks like systemd is not even being invoked to set up ttys. That is what inactive dead means to me, anyway. Try, as root, systemctl unmask getty@tty1.service systemctl enable getty@tty1.service systemctl start getty@tty1.service The @ might need to be escaped. If this doesn't do it, I'm out of ideas. Maybe someone else can point you in the right direction. If this works for getty1, all the gettys should start at the next reboot (I think). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
